In these unprecedented times, it is imperative that I pay attention to my emotional states. I realize how easily it is to be triggered at this time. I let go of those emotions that fail to support me, such as fear, and usher in faith, instead.
I constantly monitor my thoughts and feelings. I take a barometer reading of where I am on the happiness scale. I move the dial up when it gets below neutral.
I choose to unplug from the negative news. I choose to take a break from social media. I let go of people in my life who try to bring me down.
I let go of my addiction to controversial subjects. I let go of the constant bantering of political media. I turn off my television and computer. I take a break from the external world.
I choose to spend my time in nature. I walk my dog. I sit by a tree. I go barefoot in the grass.
I read uplifting books. I subscribe to positive publications. I find positive people to have congenial conversations with.
I find positive ways of using my time. I use exercise programs that fulfill me. I choose healthy foods.
I notice what lifts me up and I do more of that. I find positive articles that support my faith in life.
Today, I recite positive affirmations throughout the day. I feel my mood improving each moment. I am on my path from fear into faith.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- What can I do to strengthen my faith?
- Who can I talk with who will help lift me up?
- How can I be an example of someone who has overcome fear and applies faith principles to their life?
